Joanne Fluke has baked over 500,000 chocolate chip cookies for fans of her Hannah Swensen mysteries since the series debuted thirteen years ago, not to mention countless pies, cakes, muffins and other sweets. However, it’s not just the desserts that keep readers clamoring for her next novel, as reviewers have long praised Fluke’s work. Fluke’s CHERRY CHEESECAKE MURDER marked her debut onto The New York Times bestseller list in March 2006, and she followed up that success again a year later in March 2007 with the bestseller, KEY LIME PIE MURDER, praised by Publishers Weekly as “Yummy.” Most recently, her 2013 hardcover, RED VELVET CUPCAKE MURDER debuted at #6 on the New York Times bestseller list.

Joanne Fluke will be kicking off a national tour for her newest release with a launch event at Powell’s in Portland, OR on February 25, 2014. Other cities she’ll be visiting include Seattle, Phoenix, Austin, Houston, Dallas, Tulsa, Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison, Minneapolis and Pasadena.
